Do you give your car a nickname?

[KSchwagg86]

Mine's name is Henry

 

[Maridw]

My Rav4 is called Tink. Started calling her that after I got my tags (TinkLvr) and then put all the Tink stuff on and in her. I have Tink mats, steering wheel cover and Tink appliques on the car seat covers and dashmat.

When ever we talk about my car lasting for a bit longer without any major work having to be done, I always pat the dash and say that Tink is doing great.

All my friends know my car since it has a Magical Gatherings sticker that they used on the buses and monorails at Disney. Mine is green with Tinker Bell on it. We recently had a pizza delivery person tell me that she had seen my car before and her friend loves Tink, so she was going to tell her that she delivered to the person who owns that car they saw.

Mine is the Clemson-mobile. It is a silver honda with a Clemson tag and stickers on it.

My mom's car is going to be made into the Disney-mobile.

We had a Saturn Ion that was berry red (their color name) so we called him Barry.

We have a Nissan Altima who we call Timmy (Timmy didn't have a name, but Barry did, so we felt bad for Timmy and after trying out a few ideas we went with Timmy).

We have a Ford Escape named Dory, after the fish in Nemo ("Es-ka-pay... Hey! That's spelled just like Escape!")

My car has no name but it is a she. And she knows how to have an attitude when she wants to.

 

[hanutedmansionmomma]

ol' Bes was the name of my old car. When we got a new one the kids couldnt eat in it anymore and they still ask for ol' bes back.

I have a Chrysler Sebring convertible called Cleopatra; Cleo to her friends. DH has a Mitsubishi Galant named Gary.

Our refridgerator is also called Ralphie.

Yes, I have named all of my cars. First was my little blue Alero with the moon roof and spoiler...I named it "Speed Racer". Then, I had my black Jeep Liberty Sport that I named "Jeepie". After that was my silver Ford Mustang that I named "Pony". (okay, upon reflection, my names are not very original, are they???????????).

Last week I bought a silver BMW X3 and it remains nameless. I just haven't thought of one yet. But I need to hurry because DH and my sister keep referring to it as "Beemer" and I detest that...so it needs a name asap.

 

[Ilivetogo]

I used to have an Audi (Quattro).

Its name was "Innie"

(Get it? Innie the Outie (Audi)?)

 

[ZephyrHawk]

Yes. My current car is the 'Sexy Scion', which is really sort of a ripoff of the name for my good friend in high school's car, the 'Sexy Saturn'. I have also owned, at one time or another, the Buck Truck, the Hearse and Red (who was, of course, red).

We name everything in my family. The ducks that visit our yard once a year. The little stone turtle in the garden. The autopilot on the boats (always named George).

 

[PigletsPal2]

DH's Durango is "Buster"
My Volvo S60 is "Buzz"
DD#1's Volvo 850 is "Rufus"
DD#2's Volvo V40 is "Princess Eleanor Baby Car"
DGD's Kia Sportage is "Oliver."

We're crazy, I know.

They need middle names for the days they are bad and for the times you just love them so much!
